Abstract excerpt
Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenation deficiency (MADD) is an autosomal recessive disease affecting amino acid, fatty acid, and choline metabolisms and is a common genetic defect responsible for lipid storage myopathy. Most forms of MADD are caused by a deficiency of electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) or ETF dehydrogenase (ETFDH). However, its molecular feature has not been found uniformly in previous reports of...
